Any of the arrow combinations has been assigned, unless you want something like control-shift-option-command-arrow. See the Wiki. In fact we already have a lack of arrow shortcuts, Leopard has made some shortcuts useless. Moreover moving in a table through arrows is build- in functionality, we are not notified on how the selection is changed, only that it is changed. Moreover this would be rather non-standard behavior, which users wouldn't easily find. And there must be really really good reasons to do that.
